LivaNova’s Circulatory Support System Cleared by FDA

July 16, 2019

The FDA has given the go-ahead for LivaNova’s LifeSparc system, an advanced circulatory support pump and controller for emergency rescue patients.

The device pumps blood through a circuit outside the patients’ body for durations of less than six hours.

The LifeSparc platform allows for either full or cardiopulmonary bypass during open heart or great vessel procedures, or temporary circulatory bypass to divert blood flow around a planned circulatory pathway disruption during surgery.
